Game Overview
The Roman Empire is not dead. It has just changed its skin. Corruption, nepotism, and power struggles are all part of the environment where you will find yourself playing in this turn-based political simulator. With heresies looming, you must protect the one true faith and integrity of Rome. Re-establish the supremacy of the Pope (and your family’s too). How to reach that is up to you. Climb the hierarchies, promote your friends, shape the Church on your own image. Are you ready to lead Christendom into a new era? Are you ready to lead the Church? Will you be able to lead it to greatness and prevent it from complete disintegrating? Not all Pontiffs had this concern: “Since God has given us the Papacy, let us enjoy it” said Pope Leo X. What is certain is that being the successor of St. Peter brings enormous benefits. Appoint the bishops, decide who will sit in the College of Cardinals and appoint the boards of the most important congregations and institutions. And if you just can’t leave the Church in good hands, at least make sure that your successor is your own flesh and blood. You certainly have good intentions for God’s people but remember: learn the rules of the game and then play better than everyone else. It is not necessarily the most pious candidate who will ascend to the papal throne. The world is full of evil people who will have no qualms about taking you down. Good intentions are not enough if you really want to leave your family name in history. Bribe your way into positions and favours; blackmail those whose secrets you know and if things go wrong: kill. In the end, God will judge us; in the meantime, there are the earthly courts. Remember: the law applies strictly only to enemies; for friends, it is interpreted.
